The local press recently raised the question: Can LA have too many good restaurants? The answer is only if you want to try to eat in them all. From fully loaded hot dogs at Pink's to the most expensive restaurants west of the Mississippi, Los Angeles has eateries for all tastes and all pocketbooks and an abundance of both food trucks and celebrity chefs - sometimes one and the same. In LA, celebrity chefs don't have just one restaurant but build empires. New restaurants are popping up all the time - some as pop-ups - but others like the 24-hour gourmet Pacific Dining Car have been around since the 1920s.
